PACKAGING

The development of the packaging begins long before the car is ready to be packaged.  Packaging is created much like the actual die-cast cars using clay prototypes.  In the image below, the clamshell packaging we use for our 1:64 scale Muscle Car Garage is being created.  After the clay prototype has been approved, a bronze mold of the packaging is produced.  Below, in the bronze mold, you can see the front and back of the clamshell packaing.  

To create packaging, the machine in the image to the far right is used.  It is called a Heat Molding Machine.  Large sheets of PVC plastic are placed over the bronze molds.  A large heating component melts the PVC plastic down over the mold to form the clamshell packaging.  Each GreenLight die-cast replica is then hand packaged and ready to be shipped.
